Overview

Randomized trial evaluates drug permeation of ibuprofen in a microemulsion, suggesting improved formulation benefits.

Key Points

  • This work aims to formulate and evaluate a ibuprofen-loaded topical microemulsion to enhance localized drug action and reduce systemic side effects.
  • Developed an ibuprofen microemulsion using Isopropyl Myristate, Span 80, and ethanol in a 6:4 ratio.
  • Assessed physicochemical properties including pH, viscosity, and drug content.
  • Conducted in vitro drug permeation studies using a Franz diffusion cell.
  • The optimized microemulsion exhibited a pH of 6.0 ± 0.1 and viscosity of 99.9 mPa·s.
  • Demonstrated sustained drug release for up to 12 hours in PBS (pH 7.4).
  • Achieved 102.8% drug incorporation with good physical stability and no phase separation.
